Ṛgveda Saṃhitā 3.5.8

RV 3.5.8

सद्यो जात ओषधीभिर् ववक्षे यदी वर्धन्ति प्रस्वो घृतेन । आप इव प्रवता शुम्भमाना उरुष्यद् अग्निः पित्रोर् उपस्थे ॥

sadyo jāta oṣadhībhir vavakṣe yadī vardhanti prasvo ghṛtena | āpa iva pravatā śumbhamānā uruṣyad agniḥ pitror upasthe ||

Devanagari rendered by HREEM from the edition's roman (IAST) text; the IAST is the edition's own.

Born suddenly, by plants he grew to greatness, when tender shoots with holy oil increased him, Like waters lovely when they hasten downward may Agni in his Parents' lap protect us.
